Help
Autumn,
I have had a hard time keeping up with all the threads lately. I'm so glad you're still coming back though.
I think all the advice you've gotten is great! Just a caution though (because I care), if you take any medications please check to see if any of the supplements contradict the meds. There is a really good link on this site in the "Health Store" section. Just click on any of the supplements, then click "more info". There is a disclaimer there which includes a link to drugdigest.com. It's an easy site to maneuver.
I'm not a Dr but as I do take an antidepressant, I choose not to take melatonin, calms, valarian, or chamomile as there have been drug interactions reported. When I first came to this forum and started the kudzu my drinking has cut way back. I had a terrible time getting to sleep every single night. I mentioned to my acupuncturist that I wasn't sleeping well and she considered that in my session. I slept like a baby that night and every night since. It's an option for anyone who can't take the other supplements.
So happy that you're with us.
